Ecorobotix Advances Sustainable Agriculture Through Precision AI Technology
Ecorobotix, a Swiss-based agtech company specializing in AI-driven Ultra-High Precision (UHP) spraying, continues to strengthen its leadership in sustainable crop management. Following rapid growth and strong financial performance, the company announced that it will present its newest innovation in crop protection at Agritechnica 2025 in Hanover this November.
The company’s proprietary Plant-by-Plant™ technology uses advanced artificial intelligence to identify and treat each individual plant with exceptional precision, reducing the use of pesticides and other crop protection products by up to 95%. This highly targeted approach improves crop health, minimizes environmental impact, and lowers costs for growers.
According to Dominique Mégret, CEO of Ecorobotix, “Farmers today face rising costs, labor shortages, and pressure to reduce inputs while still producing more food. Our new innovation takes precision even further to help them meet those challenges.”
Strong Financial Backing to Accelerate Innovation
Ecorobotix’s recent funding rounds, totaling $150 million, underscore investor confidence in its technology and business model. The Series D round, completed in 2025, was led by Highland Europe, with new participation from the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF) and McWin Capital Partners through the McWin Food Tech Fund.
“These latest investment rounds have allowed us to accelerate our innovation, expand into new crop types, broaden our product range, and bring our advanced crop algorithms to market faster,” said Dominique Mégret. “Thanks to the trust of our investors, we are scaling a proven solution to help deliver better-quality food for the world.”
The capital infusion supports R&D expansion, new product development, and the application of Ecorobotix’s precision algorithms to additional crop varieties and markets.
Plant-by-Plant™ Technology: Precision Meets Sustainability
Ecorobotix’s Plant-by-Plant™ AI platform combines real-time image analysis and precision dosing to treat individual plants within a spray footprint of just a few centimeters. This enables the targeted application of non-selective crop protection products—reducing chemical use, improving yield consistency, and aligning with evolving global regulations on pesticide reduction.
The company’s technology supports growers across multiple sectors, including broadacre crops, vegetables, and specialty crops, offering a scalable solution that balances productivity and environmental responsibility.
